INSURANCE COVERAGE
If you have an HSA (Health Savings Account), Helen Healy's consultations and prescribed supplements are allowable, tax-free expenditures. Effective January 1, 2004, tax-favored HSA's, once available only to federal employees, were offered to the general public. Health Savings Accounts allow you to take control of your health care expenses and treatment options, however, many are unaware this choice exists. We strongly urge you to look into an HSA as an alternative insurance choice. To find out more, please check out: HSA Insider Currently, insurance companies and HMO’s in Minnesota do not cover naturopathic services.
Flexible Spending programs also allow for naturopathic health care deductions. Check with your plan administrators. We recommend that everyone ask their insurance providers to allow coverage for natural healthcare expenses.
